A Roofing Trade Passed Down and Built On
Some trades are learned from a manual. Others are learned by growing up around the people who know them inside and out.
For Bobby, roofing was the latter.
Long before Perkins Metal Roofing became the business it is today, Bobby was learning from his family's background in the roofing industry. That early exposure gave him more than technical knowledge. It showed him the value of doing a job properly, knowing the materials you're working with and building relationships that last beyond a single project.
More than 16 years of industry experience later, those lessons still shape the way Perkins Metal Roofing does business. Today, we're a family-owned and locally operated company serving homeowners, contractors, farmers and commercial property owners throughout Eastern Ontario, from the Kingston area through Brockville and toward Ottawa. We've grown over the years, but we've kept our approach personal: know your trade, give people honest advice and stand behind the work you do.
Experience Passed Down, Knowledge Built Up
Generations of roofing knowledge gave Perkins Metal Roofing its foundation. Years spent working directly with roofs, building products and customers added another layer to it. That experience matters because every project comes with its own questions. Which product makes sense for the building? How much material will the job require? What measurements are needed? Is professional installation the better route, or does the customer simply need the right supplies?
We take the time to answer those questions.
Our reputation has been built on quality workmanship, dependable service, competitive pricing and straightforward advice. As a trusted local supplier of Easy Building Products materials, we can also connect customers with premium metal roofing and building products suited to residential, commercial and agricultural applications.
We Install It, We Sell It, We Know It
Perkins Metal Roofing works on both sides of the industry. Our team professionally installs metal roofing, but we also supply roofing and building products to contractors, builders, farmers and property owners completing their own projects. That hands-on installation experience gives us a practical understanding of the materials we sell and how they'll perform once they're on the building.
If you're purchasing supplies, we can help you select appropriate products, work through material take-offs and assist with roof measurements. Instead of simply placing an order, you have someone local to talk to when you're figuring out what the job actually requires. It's the kind of service that comes naturally when you've spent years working with the same products you sell.
Safety Has a Place on Every Job
Working above someone's home, business, or agricultural property comes with responsibility. We take that seriously. Perkins Metal Roofing is fully insured, WSIB compliant and Working at Heights certified, with safety standards that support both our team and the customers whose properties we work on.
We also stand behind our roofing installations with a 10-year workmanship warranty, while materials are backed by a 30-year material warranty. It's our way of putting something concrete behind the work and products we provide.
Our Roots Go Beyond Roofing
Around here, work and community have a way of crossing paths. Our family has strong ties to the region, including the Athens, Ontario community, where we actively support local events. Those connections matter to us because Eastern Ontario isn't simply our service area. It's where our family lives, works and has put down roots.
And roofing isn't the family's only connection to the land. We also operate a beef farm, so agricultural customers aren't an industry category on a website to us. We understand the realities of rural properties, working buildings and the people who depend on them every day.
From a family roofing background to a family farm, Perkins Metal Roofing has grown around the kind of practical, hands-on work that remains at the heart of the business today.
